Conditions of participation

Reviewed by MABS Executive Committee Septmber 20^th 2016

The military nature of the MABS Symposia, although a non-classified conference, requires some control by the "MABS Executive Committee" as specified in paragraph 4 "Administration and General Control" of the Terms of Reference. This procedure has proven to be very effective in preserving the non-classified status of the conference and thus enabling and promoting a free and comprehensive exchange of information between participants.

Persons who have never participated in a MABS conference should proceed as follows:

• Persons from a country represented in the MABS Executive Committee should contact the representative of their respective country for further information, according to the list of the MABS Executive Committee.

• Persons from a country not represented in the MABS Executive Committee should contact the chairman of the MABS conference they intend to attend, e.g. MABS 25

In both cases the national representatives or the concerned chairman will make a decision about participation in accordance with the specifications of the Terms of Reference of MABS , and if appropriate, in consultation with other members of the MABS Executive.Committee.
